USB thumb drive mounting as Read Only
Hi
I did a fresh install of Suse 10.1 today and it seems that any USB device I mount (ipod, thumb drive) gets mounted read only for me. As root I can read/write to the devices with no problem. There aren't any entries in the fstab file for these devices so I'm at a loss of where to look to fix this problem. I checked the available groups and there is no usb group. Any advice would be appreciated. |
Well, add an entry to fstab.. Something like
/dev/sda1 /mnt/flash vfat noexec,fmask=133,dmask=022,user,noauto 0 0 (my entry) |
Thanks for the suggestion but when I add line to the fstab file and plug the drive in I get the following error:
Operation Failed: /dev/sdb1 found in fstab Incidently, when the device is mounted it shows like this: /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev) Any other suggestions would be appreciated. |
And if you mount it as user? Does it belong to you? Also try fmask=111,dmask=000 , though this is unsafe.
